Hand-Crafted Bags Created by Women in Africa that Feed Orphans

Posted on 30. Nov, 2009 by admin in Uncategorized

We are so excited be able to offer you these hand-crafted Timbali Bags!

These bags are made in Swaziland, Africa by the village “GoGos” (grandmothers). Each bag is hand-made and is one of a kind! No two bags are identical but each bag is made with equal amounts of love!

The bags come in a variety of colors and patterns. All of the bags are also reversible, so you can choose between a bolder pattern or a solid gray or cream alternative.

In Swaziland, the average life expectancy is around 28 years old. This is mainly due to the wide-spread AIDS pandemic in the country. As a results most children are double orphans (having lost both parents).

The GoGos will often take in as many orphan children into their small huts as they can. It is not unusual to visit a hut and find as many as 10 children living their.

These women carry the weight of their country on their backs.

When you purchase a Timbali bag, you are supporting the work and livelihood of these amazing women and the children they have taken in.

Your bag will include a tag with the name of the grandmother who hand-crafted it just for you!

TIMBALI BAGS ARE DOUBLE THE BLESSING!

NOT ONLY WILL YOUR PURCHASE SUPPORT THE GOGOS, IT WILL ALSO GO TOWARDS FEEDING AN ORPHAN FOR 1 MONTH!!!

Since all of the bags are unique, we have no way of allowing you to pick your bag. It is a grab-bag style! However, if you have a pattern or color that you like, please call us and we will do our absolute BEST to accommodate you!
